Chapter 1084

Indeed... these True Gods are truly not easy to move...

After learning from the Red-haired Director why the kingdom had no name, Li Ang's brow couldn't help but furrow.

It sounded like the role of these True Gods was somewhat like "wedges" that stabilized the world. If one were to rashly replace them, or even pull them out completely, it would cause the originally stable world to become misaligned.

Therefore, no matter how powerful the Cleanup Bureau was, they could only temporarily finish off the troublemaking True God, letting it rest for a period of time before it resurrected; they couldn't strike a fatal blow and dig up the opponent's roots...

"Don't think about it."

Looking at Li Ang's furrowed brow, the Red-haired Director advised:

"This time, not only did we finish off the King of Nightmares directly, we let the bugs devour his River of Nightmares, and we also finished off more than half of the Nightmares under his command. He won't be able to recover for ten or twenty years.

The King of Nightmares, who has always been slippery, has almost never suffered such a big loss. The last time he was this miserable, I'm afraid it dates back to that royal ancestor. You've already done very well."

"..."

Won't be able to recover for ten or twenty years... does that mean in twenty or thirty years, he will be able to recover?

Hearing the hidden meaning in the Red-haired Director's comfort, Li Ang couldn't help but recall himself, numbly touching a photo album as shown by the King of Nightmares through the Mirror Crown, and his heart couldn't help but ache fiercely.

Not enough! Twenty years is not enough!

Li Ang, who had been fiercely broken by the King of Nightmares, unconsciously gritted his teeth. Although he didn't say anything else, he kept this grudge in his heart.

When the King of Nightmares resurrects in the future, if he himself isn't dead, he will likely be at the level of a "Zodiac Director." At that time, he must go to the Dream Realm again... No! He would go to the Dream Realm every ten or twenty years to make him die again immediately!

Once he has the level to break into the Dream Realm alone, for every day he lives, the King of Nightmares will have to honestly die for a day!

After fiercely recording a debt for the King of Nightmares in his mental notebook, the disgruntled Li Ang found the unconscious Snow Woman and reached out to pinch her philtrum fiercely.

"Ah!!!"

The Snow Woman, pinched awake, let out a cry, then asked with a blank look:

"You... where am I..."

"You're still alive; the King of Nightmares has been finished off."

"Ah?"

When the Snow Woman was knocked unconscious, it was the moment the King of Nightmares was at his most arrogant. As a result, she closed her eyes and opened them, and the King of Nightmares was suddenly gone. She couldn't help but be shocked!

"What happened? Isn't he..."

"He's dead, and considering that after the King of Nightmares dies, the Dream Realm will be temporarily imbalanced, we will send you back."

Li Ang, whose revenge wasn't thorough enough and who was in a bad mood, didn't answer the Snow Woman's question but announced the result of her treatment with a straight face, then instructed:

"Also, in the next week, the Dream Realm will be devoured by more than half by the 【Dream-Eating Alien Armor】. Be careful when you go back."

"Ah???"

Thoroughly confused by the three consecutive pieces of news, the Snow Woman, who went from great shock to great joy and then to great bewilderment, couldn't speak after saying "Ah," her pair of ice-blue eyes looking slightly vacant.

No... weren't we just being hunted by the King of Nightmares? How did everything flip in the blink of an eye? What about the Dream Realm? How long have I been unconscious? A week?

"You... I..."

"Looking at you, you shouldn't have any questions... If there are no problems, hurry up and go!"

Looking up at the sky, which was faintly turning white, Li Ang, who hadn't closed his eyes for over thirty hours, couldn't help but yawn, then urged with a weary look:

"In at most another hour, the sun will come out. By then, even if you want to leave, you won't be able to."

"Oh! Right!"

Hearing Li Ang's words, the Snow Woman trembled slightly, then, just like when she took Li Ang through the dreamscape before, she hurriedly puffed out her cheeks and blew out a breath of... air.

???

The Snow Woman, not believing it, puffed out her fair cheeks and tried a few more times, but even though her face turned red, she couldn't exhale the cold wind that could travel through the dreamscape. Seeing her just blowing air but not leaving, Li Ang couldn't help but frown.

"What are you doing?"

"I... I don't know either!"

"I think I know what's going on."

Looking at the Snow Woman, who was spinning in circles with anxiety, the Red-haired Director said thoughtfully:

"Has your nightmare core been destroyed by someone?"

Looking fearfully at the Red-haired Director, whose hair was dark red like blood and who seemed to emit the screams of countless nightmares when she got close, the Snow Woman subconsciously hid behind Li Ang and then nodded cautiously.

"Yes... my nightmare core was crushed by the King of Nightmares..."

"Then it's not strange."

The Red-haired Director said knowingly:

"The Fallen Soul Black Abyss hasn't completely left, and reality and the Dream Realm are still overlapping. Your nightmare core is gone, so according to the rules of the real world, you are now about the same as a pure human, and humans are naturally very difficult to enter the Dream Realm when they are awake."

The Snow Woman hesitated:

"But... but before, I could take him through nightmares?"

"But before, the King of Nightmares wasn't dead either."

The Red-haired Director spread her hands:

"Before, you could take Li Ang through nightmares mainly because of your status as a Nightmare Messenger. The King of Nightmares took your nightmare core but gave you a small portion of the authority to call upon nightmare powers.

But now, the King of Nightmares, who represented nightmares, has been finished off by us. The nightmare power itself has weakened to the limit, and the rest have almost all returned to the depths of the River of Nightmares, busy trying to resurrect the King of Nightmares. Where would they have the energy to listen to you?"

"..."

After understanding her current situation, the Snow Woman begged eagerly:

"Then... then can you send..."

"No."

The Red-haired Director said with a smile:

"Don't go too far. You invaded my jurisdiction with the King of Nightmares; it's already quite good that I didn't finish you off. Why should you make demands of me?"

"But... but it's going to be dawn soon..."

"Yes, it's going to be dawn soon, but what does that have to do with us?"

"I... I..."

Is the Director up to something again?

Watching the Red-haired Director, who neither finished off the Snow Woman nor agreed to send her back to the Dream Realm, but kept putting pressure on her, Li Ang knew with his butt that she must have some plan.

Sure enough, as the sky grew brighter, the Snow Woman became completely anxious.

Her brain, which wasn't very capable to begin with, was muddled by the Red-haired Director. First, she signed something, and then, an old collar was put around her fair neck.

Li Ang saw at a glance that both items were anomalous objects used to control people. This unlucky child, the Snow Woman, had likely sold herself out completely; she probably didn't even have her underwear left.

However, after coaxing and deceiving the Snow Woman, the Red-haired Director still didn't send her back immediately, but pointed to the 【Dream-Desire Invader】 on Li Ang's neck and asked with a smile:

"Li Ang, can you lend me your pendant for a while?"
